Two changes…

  1. Dinner is a continuing struggle. Every night we make food for her and she throws the plate on the floor. It’s driving both of us a little crazy. The challenge is that she seems to be incredibly hungry and grouchy when she leaves school, so we’ve been getting her a snack on the way home. But I think that’s ruining her appetite. So starting today, no snacks on the way home. If that doesn’t help, we may have to start picking her up earlier so she can eat earlier.
  2. The Fix. Dave and I have admittedly been inconsistent when it comes to the pacifier rule. She seems to really need (want?) it sometimes, but we both feel like it’s encouraging a bad habit. For a while we were saying she could only have it at bedtime (unless she was really upset) and she seemed ok with that. But lately, she’s been really upset a lot, so we’ve gotten into the habit of giving it to her pretty frequently. So (re)starting today, no pacifier except in the crib. I hope we’re doing the right thing, I’m not entirely sure… 🙁
